Bayou Bar & Grill

So the website says they have a happy hour but just was inside 2/17/24 and the bartender seemed confused as to whether or not there was a happy hour. Sign says $5 Sam Adam’s and the bartender said that was the happy hour. Left. Probably not a place I would ever recommend

Where to start… I hate being excited to try a new place and being extremely let down. Went here for “Happy Hour” and it was nothing happy about it. The heat was NOT on. We had to keep our coats on the whole time. ONE server for the entire establishment. She was also the bartender. Other workers were just running in and out the kitchen but no one came back to our table to offer water even. After 10 mins I had to get up and go to the bar to get the attention of the server. There was a couple that was already seating we were arrived and no one had been to their table either. They ended up walking out. We ordered a so called Tokyo tea that literally just tased like iced tea - not a once of liquor. For $15 we expected some more. We sent those back and just got a beer and ginger ale (that tasted watered down). The food took forever to come out (over 30 mins) and nothing came out together. Two cheap paper plates were put down in front of us (like pizza slice plates smh). We received the cold fries first. Then after another 10 mins some wings - one of which was just old bay on top of hot sauce. After another 10 mins we received potstickers that were clearly frozen. One was still frozen on the middle - sent that back. The onion rings came out last (after another 10 mins) super dark and border line burnt. One item we ordered never came out. The bill comes and it still have the 2 drinks on there that we sent back ($30) smh The bill was corrected. The food did not sit well in my stomach and I was in the bathroom all morning the next day. Maybe it was an off night, but we won’t be back.

I'd forgotten all about Bayou, but was so glad I stopped in! Looking for a place to eat with a friend on a Sunday, and decided to eat at Bayou. The setting was so chill. Once I stepped in I had forgotten how much I loved Bayou when I was in college. Had some really good conversations at the bar. There's a lot of indoor seating and the owner was friendly when taking our order. We ate outside to enjoy some of the summer weather. My wings and fries were average as was my drink, but all in all great night out. Would definitely go back.
